What F2
actually means.
On Thermador induction cooktops F2, F4, E7015, E8207 and E8208 share one meaning: the electronics overheated and the zone they supply switched off. On the electric cooktop list, F2 affects one zone and F4 affects all of them.

What to do when F2 shows on the cooktopKind of codeTemperature and overheat sensors
A sensor under the glass or on a board reported a reading the control rejected, or heat climbing past the safe limit — often after an empty pan was left on a zone. The zone is allowed to cool and a loose sensor plug is ruled out before the sensor, the coil assembly or the board is blamed. A top that keeps getting hotter is switched off at the breaker first.
Usually leads toInduction board and coil repair
Induction zones that stop sensing pans, cut out, buzz or show codes, traced to the power boards, the coils, their sensors and the links to the controls.
Shows up asCooktop Element Not Heating
A coil stays black, a radiant ring under the glass never glows, or a zone warms so weakly that a pot of water will not boil.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Thermador's own guidance for F2 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Wait for the cooktop to cool, then touch any control; when the code clears you can keep cooking.
Keep anything stored in the cabinet below away from the underside of the cooktop so air can reach it.
If these codes come back often, book a visit so the cooling path under the cooktop can be checked.
Still there?
It usually turns into induction board and coil repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
These codes are about heat in the electronics, not about a cracked glass top or a pan that is too small. They also do not point to one broken zone, since the cooktop stops heating to let the electronics cool.
